We are now a week in on The Walking Dead’s big reveal on Glenn’s fate and while it didn’t really sit well with everybody — why I couldn’t tell you — it had people buzzing. Now we can discuss it freely and write think pieces about why cliffhangers and fake deaths are ruining television. It also means that Steven Yeun can freely discuss what happened with his friends, family, fans, and Jimmy Fallon.
Yeun was aware of the memes, he was aware of the fan discussions and theories, and he was very aware that people wanted to know what the hell was going on. That’s why he started doing the crap shrug and stopped replying to his texts. Even those texts that could be confused for real life worry and concern for his well being. Not cool, Yeun.
Knowing what we know now — and yes, I’m doing my best not to spoil the thing everybody knows up to this point — I really do hope that Glenn ends up truly dying in the midseason finale. Right when he gets back to the group, have him bite the big one and really screw with everybody. And make it uneventful too, like he trips and hits his head. Who cares about the comic story, Glenn is clumsy.
